Get Clarity Before You Commit Millions

A diagnostic that identifies what could go wrong with your transformation - before you launch the program.

Most Transformation Programs Are Doomed From the Start

You're planning a major transformation. The business case looks solid. Leadership is aligned. The budget is approved.

But hidden beneath the surface are the issues that will derail you:

→ Unclear value definition - "Digital transformation" sounds good, but what are you actually creating?
→ Misaligned expectations - Business thinks one thing, IT is building another
→ Unidentified dependencies - Critical assumptions no one has validated
→ Organizational unreadiness - The culture, structure, or capability gaps that will slow you down

By the time these surface, you're months into execution and millions into spend.

What if you could identify them now - before you start?

A Rapid Diagnostic Before You Launch

The Transformation Readiness Assessment is a focused, intensive review of your transformation program before you commit to execution.

Think of it as insurance against expensive mistakes.

In 2-3 days of intensive workshops and analysis, I examine:

Your Transformation Vision

Is the value you're creating clearly defined?
Are you solving the right problem?
Can you measure success?

Organizational Alignment

Does leadership really agree on what's changing?
Are business and IT on the same page?
Do teams understand the big picture?

Critical Assumptions

What needs to be true for this to work?
Which assumptions are risky?
What have you not validated yet?

Readiness Factors

Do you have the capability to execute this?
Are there cultural or structural barriers?
What's missing?

How it Works?

Phase 1: Preparation (1 week before)

I review your transformation materials:

Business case and strategic vision
Current program plans
Stakeholder landscape
Any existing analysis

Phase 2: Intensive Assessment (2-3 days)

Focused workshops and interviews with key stakeholders:

Leadership team
Program/transformation leads
Business owners
IT/technology leaders

We examine the transformation from every angle, testing assumptions and identifying gaps.

Phase 3: Analysis & Recommendations (1 week)

I synthesize findings and create your readiness report.

Phase 4: Readiness Review (Half day)

I present findings and recommendations to your leadership team.

What You Get

Transformation Readiness Report

A clear, actionable assessment covering:

Current State Analysis

What you're planning
Critical assumptions
Identified risks

Gap Analysis

What's unclear or misaligned
What's missing
Where assumptions are risky

Readiness Assessment

Organizational capability
Cultural/structural barriers
Dependencies and blockers

Clear Recommendation

One of three outcomes:

→ Green Light - You're ready to proceed with confidence
→ Yellow Light - Ready, but address these specific risks first
→ Red Light - Critical issues need resolving before you launch

Action Plan

Specific steps to address identified issues
Priorities and sequencing
Quick wins vs. longer-term fixes

Who This Is For

This Assessment Is Right For You If:

✓ You're planning a major transformation (core systems, digital transformation, large-scale change)

✓ You have budget approved but want validation before committing

✓ Leadership is mostly aligned but you sense gaps beneath the surface

✓ You've seen transformations fail before and want to avoid repeating mistakes

✓ You need an objective outside perspective on your readiness

✓ You want insurance against expensive mistakes before you start

Why This Matters

Headline:

The Cost of Getting It Wrong

Without this assessment, you risk:

→ Spending 6-12 months building before you realize fundamental assumptions were wrong
→ Teams working at cross-purposes because alignment was surface-level
→ Expensive rework when hidden dependencies surface
→ A transformation that delivers technology change but no business value

The average cost of these mistakes? Millions in wasted spend. Years of delayed value. Organizational fatigue.

The cost of this assessment? A fraction of what you'll waste if you get it wrong.
